In a water tank there are four taps, the first one adds water at 5 L/s the second at 6t L/s; the third drains water at a rate of t^2 L/ s, and the fourth is closed. Argue the truth or falsehood of the following statement: "The rate of change of volume with respect to time can be calculated as: dv/dt = (5-6t-t^2) L/ s."
